She is the founder of Full Collective, creator of the annual Sowers Summit, and host of the Being a Sanctuary podcast.

    Show Summary: Do you ever feel like you’re running on empty? Maybe your schedule is filled and you feel like you have no time to do the things you want to do or spend time with people you miss. Sometimes we feel empty because we’re lacking a community that can help fulfill our needs or lend a hand. Pricelis Perreaux-Dominguez realized that women were running themselves dry while simultaneously missing out on a devoted community to spend time with. She founded The Full Collective with the hope of bringing women together to experience the fullness that God wants us to have through Him in our lives. Join hosts Elisa Morgan and Vivian Mabuni as they learn more about The Full Collective and how we can find fullness through Christ and community during this episode of God Hears Her.

     

    Notes and Quotes: 

    • “No matter what the battle that has come forth is, no matter what has tried to be stolen, destroyed, or killed in their life, that does not change the fullness that God has for us.” —Pricelis Perreaux-Dominguez 

    • “I was very much in search of God, but I was looking for Him in a lot of things, a lot of different people, and a lot of different places. . . . I was filled with remembering that I am loved and seen by God, and that He’s actually been pursuing me and running after me all these years I’ve been running away from Him.” —Pricelis Perreaux-Dominguez 

    • “We have to bring our questions to the feet of Jesus.” —Pricelis Perreaux-Dominguez 

    • “We need to remember that our faith is not individualized. Although our salvation is individual, the work that the body of Christ is called to do on Earth is a collective work.” —Pricelis Perreaux-Dominguez  

    • “What is absolute truth is that Jesus came to give us life, and life to the full.” —Pricelis Perreaux-Dominguez

Orsika also knows the journey to healing is through our Lord and Savior, Jesus.

    169. Learning to Surrender (with Tara Sun)

    Guest Bio: Tara Sun is the author of Surrender Your Story and host of the popular podcast Truth Talks with Tara. She is passionate about helping women simplify and know what it means to live out the gospel and know, love, and live God’s Word through online resources. Tara lives in Oregon with her husband, Michael, and their son, Hunter. When she isn’t writing or podcasting, Tara loves to cook, bake sourdough, go on walks through their small town, and chat about Jesus and life with anyone and everyone.

     

    Show Summary: When you think of surrender, do you think of weakness? Do you think of giving up? Or do you think of laying your life down for good? When we think about surrendering our lives to God, we don’t realize the outcome of surrendering all things to Him. We may have a harder time with control than we think. Our God Hears Her podcast guest today is Tara Sun, a woman who had to learn how to surrender her story to the Lord. Join hosts Elisa Morgan and Eryn Eddy Adkins as they learn how to surrender control with Tara Sun during this conversation on God Hears Her. 

     

    Notes and Quotes: 

    • “We live in a kingdom where Jesus said a lot of upside-down things that actually make a lot of sense when we live by His Word and listen to His Word.” —Tara Sun

    • “When you lay your life down, you get to pick up something greater.” —Tara Sun

    • “God doesn’t waste anything. It’s for a reason, even if I didn’t plan it. And it’s all leading up to creating a stronger, more sanctified you. A you that knows who God is more.” —Tara Sun

    • “It doesn’t matter the greatest plans that I can come up with, it can never touch the goodness and greatness of God’s purposes for my life. He wants our obedience and our “yes” coupled with His divine purposes because ultimately He is in control.” —Tara Sun

    • “The narrative of surrender is actually at the heart of what it means to be a disciple.” —Tara Sun

    168. Walking Through Infidelity (with Jami Nato)

    Guest Bio: Jami Nato is a blogger, Instagram influencer, and serial entrepreneur. She mentors thousands of leaders by running an essential oils business and a local coffee shop. She has four non-Catholic kids who attend Catholic school, one irritatingly athletic husband, two unkempt dogs, and a pet turtle she is constantly trying to bring back to the pond. She juggles this circus in the best-kept secret of the Midwest where people genuinely do care about your aunt’s hip surgery: Kansas City, Missouri. 

     

    Show Summary: Have you ever felt closer to God after a season of suffering? When Jami Nato found out her husband was having an affair, it felt like her world imploded. Through the trials and tribulations of that season, she found that her relationship with God was growing stronger. Join hosts Elisa Morgan and Eryn Eddy Adkins as they learn how Jami walked through that season of her life with God by her side during this God Hears Her conversation.

    • “What God did in my heart was supernatural. I felt God’s nearness so close, which I think that only suffering can do for you.” —Jami Nato

    • “Forgiveness isn’t a one-time thing. [The situation] would chase you, it would taunt you, and you had to turn around and say, ‘No more. I’ve already forgiven you.’” —Jami Nato

    • “If God carried me this far, and showed me what He needed to show me in the perfect timing, He would do it again. He would take care of me.” —Jami Nato

    • “When the gospel gets so deep into your roots, that is the fruit that you produce.” —Jami Nato

    • “Not until I experienced suffering did the gospel become real to me. My need for salvation. My need for the cross. My need for His presence.” —Jami Nato

    • “There’s so much possibility when partnering with God and saying, ‘What’s next?’” —Heather Creekmore

    • “To reframe, to really change our thoughts, is not just about taking the thoughts captive. But it’s seeing ourselves being in the image of God’s Kingdom instead of this earthly kingdom.” —Heather Creekmore

    • “When God doesn’t come through the way we thought He should come through, that is when we have the sweet opportunity to really get to know the real God instead of the God who is a figment of our imagination, and when we really have to lean on trusting Him.” —Heather Creekmore

    Guest Bio: Emily E. Ryan is a minister’s wife, mother of four, and junior high English teacher who first dedicated her writing life to the Lord when she was a child.

She writes about this struggle in her upcoming book Guilt-Free Quiet Times, where she encourages women with practical creativity to ditch guilt and embrace grace in their devotional time with the Lord.

Or do you see yourself frantically running around the house apologizing to God while you chase a toddler who has interrupted your quiet time. . . .again. Emily E. Ryan wants to help women reimagine their quiet time with the Lord by lifting up the guilt we sometimes feel.

    • “God is not calling us into this perfect, little checklist quiet time, He’s calling us into a deeper, intimate relationship with Him.” —Emily E. Ryan

    • The Lord has given us so much more choice into how we approach our spiritual disciples than we realize.” —Emily E. Ryan

    • “Whenever we have conviction, it always leads to a solution. If the Holy Spirit convicts your heart, then He’s doing so to lead you closer.” —Emily E. Ryan

    • “The highs and lows are going to happen regardless. It’s where they are leading you in the end. Are they leading you to the Lord, and is your faith growing?” —Emily E. Ryan
